About

Have had extensive experience with outpatient community agencies and state inpatient hospitals, Most recent work has been with involuntarily committed patients and focus has been to support their level of privilege to ultimately support their conditional discharge. Their life stories explain their current status and that can't be erased. What can be done is to reinforce positive elements in their histories in order to redefine their self-images in a more positive light and reinforce that which is possible. I use a mixture of insight-oriented therapy and cognitive behavioral orientation to work on therapeutic improvement.
